Who's Your Daddy?

BigDaddy hurting earnings

[Hobbs]

Been sailing through Google all updates untouched for years, till a couple of days ago traffic & earnings both dropped by over 25%, and I started to learn about a creature called "supplemental results", and saw how ugly my site was in June 2005 in current Google cache, that acts as a time machine all of a sudden!

Still in business due a historical average 1,200 daily bookmarks over years.

Is Google shooting itself (AdSense) in the foot?

How are you guys & gals doing and coping?

Are you sure its bigdaddy not other factor?

[Hobbs]

Yeah, ""supplemental results" and all.

[kartiksh]

Not sure this will help but thought I share with you

-301 to all supplemental pages to new duplicate page.
-Adding custom sitemap page in case of 404 if possible redirecting to intended page

Roll back once all cached in Google again (about 1 month)

I have never tried this.

[Hobbs]

Thanks kartiksh, too many pages, would take years, and already have a site map, it's up to the bot to nibble away at my bot food.

Tired of optimizing AdSense to make up for fluctuations and now BigDaddy, missing the good old days when all I had to do was build content, tweak design and deal with the eventual advertiser that paid in advance.
